Perhaps you need a better map or, more accurately, you need the collection of Country Lanes Cycling Guides from Goldeneye covering beauty spots from the Cotswolds to Cornwall, and carefully prepared to keep you on the bendy and narrow, rather than the fast and four-lane. --Sunday Times Travel

I will repeat what stephen says about this collection of maps - it is not a map!
I was expecting the cornwall maps in the Goldeneye series to be as good as the excellent other ones in the series: Norfolk, Sussex and Peak District. A map of the area, with a selection of highlighted cycle routes to take.
No, this and the north & east map, is a collection of 18 or so smaller, randomly selected maps specific to certain routes. So this if fine if all you want is maps specific to their routes - but not so good if you intend to make your own route or go on a long distance cycle instead. Or want to see a map of Cornwall.

firstly,this is not a map.it does,however,have small map sections on it,which are difficult to read and obscured by boxes of directions.i have spent over 40 years living and travelling the area covered by this "map" and quite frankly some of the "quiet lanes and byways" suggested are very busy and dangerous main roads that i would never consider cycling on.save your money
